Standing Out From the Entrepreneurial Crowd, with Kalika Yap

Ep. 22

Joining me on the show today is someone who has pioneered her way through the field of entrepreneurship, Kalika Yap! Kalika is the sole Inventor and Founder of the signature ‘Luxe Link’, published Author of ‘The Little Brand Book’ and Host of the female-focused podcast, ‘Wonder Podcast.’ 


Taking heavy influence from her lifelong superstition surrounding money and the protection of it, Kalika was inspired to create the ‘Luxe Link’ as a way of ensuring her purse never touched the ground. However, what has driven her the most throughout her time as an entrepreneur is the desire she’s had to share her wealth with the world and enrich the lives of her customers through the work she’s done while running multiple businesses.  


In this episode, we discuss the things that have influenced Kalika the most throughout her career, what the true meaning of wealth really is, and why lockdown has been an opportunity for both of us to dedicate more time to our family lives.
